Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction June 2016

Swell chance here to score a Wayne Gretzky rookie card “hat trick”, with three examples of The Great One’s O-Pee-Chee RC all free of any unsightly creasing. We see the best as EX, with good centering and light corner wear, while another is similar but with somewhat off top-to-bottom and side-to-side centering. Dinged upper left and lower right corners affect a third, the latter exhibiting a slight diamond cut and VG-EX in our eyes. The write-up on the reverse of famous card #18 reveals that in the eyes of hockey observers back in the day, “Wayne is the best prospect to turn professional since Guy Lafleur.” The young Brantford, Ontario native would of course go on to live up to all the advance billing, rendering his rookie cards forever coveted and in demand. Oh, what an unparalleled career it was!
